The facilities in the locker room are more complete. This is true for the visiting team's locker room. Presumably the home team's locker room has also been updated.
The player tunnel has also been changed and separated in the middle. The two teams can no longer see each other when entering the stadium.
Gao Shen walked all the way out along the players' tunnel, and staff members kept nodding excitedly at him along the way. He responded politely and even waved to them with a smile.
He didn't expect that the staff at the Bernabeu would still remember him.
I could vaguely hear a familiar employee showing off, saying that he had spoken to Gao Shen back then.
Today, Gao Shen has become a legend of this stadium and this city.
When I walked out of the tunnel, I felt a sense of enlightenment.
There were 70,000 to 80,000 fans in the entire stadium, and the sound was like a flood, swallowing up every corner of the stadium.
Gao Shen stood at the entrance of the passage, silently looking ahead, to the left, and to the right. They were all fans.
He was suddenly moved.
For him, Real Madrid is indeed special.
Before time travel, he liked Real Madrid. After time travel, Real Madrid was the first team he coached. Or was it a team that coached in that way and won a miraculous double championship? How could it not be special?
This made him hesitate.
"high!"
Suddenly there was a loud roar from behind.
Gao Shen turned his head and couldn't see the stands clearly, so he had to take a few steps back.
"Remember me? Welcome home!" A fan above the tunnel entrance rushed to the guardrail and shouted at him.
Gao Shen actually forgot about it because he met too many fans when he was at Real Madrid.
But at this moment, no matter what, he had to recognize him.
"Of course, thank you!" Gao Shen waved towards him.
In the stadium stands, more and more fans noticed Gao Shen, and more and more people were calling him.
Finally, everyone in all directions shouted Gao Shen's name at the top of their lungs.
This scene even stunned the players of both teams who were warming up on the court. They stopped their movements and looked to the sidelines.
Most of the Real Madrid players were surprised because many of them had never experienced that legendary season and had only heard many legends about Gao Shen. The Naples players were even more surprised. They never expected that Gao Shen would actually perform at the Bernabeu.
To be treated with such courtesy.
Is this still an opponent?
Gao Shen was very happy and excited.
He first bowed deeply to the fans in the stands above the tunnel entrance, then turned around and bowed deeply to the fans in the stands on all sides, thanking them for their love for him.
This action earned Gao Shen more shouts.
Real Madrid captain Raul specially ran over and hugged Gao Shen heavily, making everyone in the audience excited. They called Raul and Gao Shen crazily, as if they were back in 2006.
Although only two years have passed, it feels like a long, long time has passed.
"I'm sorry, Gao, I tried my best." After the hug, Raul apologized directly.
When Gao Shen left, he told Raul to take good care of these young players, which was also his duty as captain.
But in the end, Raul didn't do it.
Capello was too eager to wash away the imprint of advanced skills. He also brought his own team. Schuster, who was coached later, also wanted to build his own team. Neither of them had the leisure to slow down.
Slowly cultivate this group of young players at Real Madrid.
Therefore, Parejo left for Serie A, with Sneijder and Van der Vaart taking the lead.
De La Red lost his main position, and Mohamed Diarra became the backbone of the defense.
Ramos was forced to step aside, Woodgate returned to England, and Cannavaro, Pepe and Heinze became the main players.
And Felipe Luis, he has left the team.
Gao Shen couldn't blame Raul, because in fact Raul couldn't protect himself.
Of the former Galacticos, now, only two superstars, Raul and Casillas, are left.
"I know." Gao Shen comforted Raul.
Casillas, Guti and Ramos also came over one after another, as well as De La Rede and Arbeloa, they also entered the squad, and they all surrounded Gao Shen, everyone gave
gave Gao Shen a warm hug.
Nothing was said, but everything was said.
…
Tonight's Bernabeu battle not only attracted 70,000 to 80,000 Real Madrid fans, attracting the attention of fans from all over the world, but also attracted hundreds of media reporters from all over the world.
They were all sitting in the media area of the stands, with guns and cannons set up and aimed at the court.
The appearance of Gao Shen immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Gao Shen's popularity in Real Madrid is really too high." Someone in the crowd said in amazement.
Everyone looked around and saw that it was Tony, the famous reporter from Reuters.
"Real Madrid's head coaches after becoming senior are not particularly ideal. Although Capello and Schuster both won championships, it's not so much that Real Madrid performed well as it was that Barcelona performed too poorly."
"When Gao Shen was here, Real Madrid fans didn't realize how good he was. But when he left and went to Naples and played such wonderful and passionate offensive football, Real Madrid fans immediately regretted it."
Someone is analyzing the psychology of Real Madrid fans.
"Although it's not the case? Now the better the performance of Gao Shen's coaching, the more regretful Real Madrid fans will feel. Only when they lose it will they want to cherish it, and what they can't get is always the best. Maybe Gao Shen will coach Real Madrid in the future and his performance will not be as good.
It is expected that they will start to curse again, this is human nature."
"That's right, but for now, Gao Shen is not only popular in Real Madrid, but in fact, he is also the most popular in the world. He has even begun to catch up with the world's top coaches such as Ferguson and Ancelotti.
."
"It's a bit early to say this now. Whether we can catch up with the world's top coaches depends on the Champions League."
"Yes, if Napoli can achieve good results in the Champions League this season, Gao Shen's reputation will be even higher."
"I heard that Naples' goal for the season is to qualify from the group stage."
"Ha, that's a bit confusing. If you are assigned to such a death group, if you can qualify, you can basically make it to the quarterfinals."
"The top eight? I think that being able to make it out of such a group of death is equivalent to the top four."
"The semi-finals are a bit too much. Going from eight to four is a hurdle."
"Yes, if you reach the semi-finals, you will basically have the ability to win the championship. Naples is still young now."
"Tenderness represents room for improvement. With Naples' progress rate, if they really want to break out of the group of death, their strength will definitely improve again. In addition, Gao Shen himself is good at targeted tactics. I think the semi-finals will be no problem."
The reporters in the media area were arguing passionately with each other. Before the game started, they started to "fight" first.
…
When Schuster walked out of the tunnel, he happened to see Raul leading Real Madrid players back to the field for training.
This made his face darken.
He had some doubts. Did Raul and others leave after seeing him coming?
But the fans at the scene paid for the tickets, so why did they need to see Schuster's face?
On the contrary, at the Bernabeu, the coach has always looked at the fans' faces.
Therefore, after Schuster came out, the fans shouted even more vigorously. It felt like Schuster committed suicide in shame and anger, and was replaced by Gao Shen.
The Germans looked very ugly.
In Nyon, Switzerland, he was ridiculed in public by Gao Shen and lost all face in front of many colleagues.
Now, at the Bernabeu, in his territory, the fans of Real Madrid have turned against him. If word spread, how can he still be the head coach?
Schuster naturally had no idea how to take advantage of the fans, but he hated Gao Shen even more.
Former Chairman Martin is absolutely right. This guy is extremely hypocritical and knows how to win people's hearts!
Later, see if I don’t completely reveal your true face on the court and let everyone in the world see that you are just a hypocrite who is bluffing and has no real substance!
In anger, Schuster even refused to say hello to Gao Shen, pretending to ignore it and walked to the home team's coaching bench.
…
Gao Shen didn't care that Schuster greeted him, he didn't even care what Schuster was thinking.
He has only one goal in tonight's game, and that is to escape unscathed.
The first game of the Champions League was an away game, and the opponent was a giant like Real Madrid. Napoli's attitude was very pragmatic, and a draw was acceptable.
Of course, Gao Shen will not tell the players this, he will still let the team try its best to win.
"It seems that you really offended him."
When Gao Shen returned to the visiting team's coaching bench, Zidane looked at Schuster's situation on the home team's coaching bench and teased Gao Shen with a smile.
When it comes to his ability to offend people, he is indeed very powerful.
Gao Shen also glanced at the home team's coaching bench. He didn't take Schuster to heart at all.
Even though he sat in the front row at the UEFA Elite Coaches Summit, it was more of Real Madrid endorsing him. With his coaching achievements, do you have the nerve to show them to others?
But this guy is so arrogant that he looks like he's worth thirty-five or eighty thousand. Who is he showing off to?
"Are you really going to defend tonight?" Zidane asked with concern.
Gao Shen shook his head, "We'll see in the game specifically. I want to see what tactics Schuster can come up with first, see who he will arrange to play in the game, and then make targeted arrangements and arrangements. In the game,
We can also adjust at any time.”
The lineup Naples deployed tonight is balanced, capable of advancing, attacking, retreating and defending. Even when it comes to playing with skills and controlling the ball, Naples is not weak. This is also the source of their deep confidence.
He wants to stabilize the first game of the Champions League and escape unscathed.
Winning the first game well is more important than anything else, especially getting a draw at the Bernabeu.
Of course, if Real Madrid's loopholes were discovered during the game, Gao Shen wouldn't mind taking away a victory.
Therefore, he attached great importance to Schuster's formation and tactics.
In fact, the most important thing about on-the-spot command is to discover the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and ourselves based on the actual situation of the game, adjust the tactics of both sides, and strive for the best results.
"It doesn't matter how bad he looks to me now. The most important thing is that he doesn't make any mistakes in his troop formation and tactics. Otherwise, even Jesus coming will not be able to save him!" Gao Shen said harshly.
